    But 2 weeks from now, he'll either be in Vegas or Miami for the Fourth of July turning the hell up. Obviously he won't forget about the loss but he'll be alright sooner than we think.
    Personally, I'm worried about his mental state and whether he can recover. That's not hyperbole, that's just a personal opinion.

    I don't expect that he's going to end up like Nick Anderson but it's not out of the realm of possibility that he could.

    It's all discussion. I can't actually know what is going on in his mind the same way I can't know if LeBron James is a troll or Ultimate Warrior fan.

    We just here talking.

    Edit. And yes, I'm over analyzing his mental state. I realize that. I'm just not saying the man is totally broken and not allowed to cry in his bed.

      "LeBron is a close, personal friend of mine, and I can say unequivocally that he is outraged at the preposterous notion that he would wear a shirt for any reason other than because he is a fan. I mean, this is a man...with a family...and CHILDREN? And you're gonna accuse him of wearing a shirt for reasons like those? It's just DISRESPECTFUL." -Stephen A answers your shirt question

        He can be both lol. He's definitely a WWE fan, been to multiple PPVs.

              I still think the MJ crying face will still be the go to. Don't think that will ever leave lol. Plus his crying face fits in with more events/pictures ppl use than LBJs. If that makes sense lol.

                    I wish. I'd rather sit through another 100 Xzibit memes than 1 more crying MJ.

                          Draymond Green hits me as being much more in touch with reality than both Rodman and Artest ever were. Those two were kind of in their own worlds, even before the perceived tipping point for each (Daly leaving Detroit, Artest's Palace fight).

                          I know I'm preaching to the choir, but even in his quiet years, I felt Rodman had a much wider spectrum of emotional volatility—he'd jump seamlessly from insanely amped to fighting mad to an emotional wreck crying at the podium. Granted, I kind of loved him for that, but even before the 90's, he seemed way more out there than Green's ever been.

                          Just pulling a name out of hat without much thought, and only speaking in terms of mentality and approach (not fundamental playstyle) but I might liken Green as a more outwardly expressive Charles Oakley type or even a softer Xavier McDaniel, in terms of being someone that basks in being an unapologetic bully.

                          I'd have to do some more thinking on that though. I'm certain there's a better character comparison out there. I just think he's too cognizant of what he's doing to be anywhere near Artest and Rodman, who were each kind of detached from Earth.
                          You would know better about early Rodman than me. I know he was never really "stable" but it seemed like most of us didn't know he was more than an unapologetic fiery competitor for a while.

                          Artest seemed "normal" also, and even got MVP considerations 1 or 2 years before the brawl. It was kind of after that we really saw how messed up he is.

                          I'm looking at Green as those guys before we found out how crazy they are... I'm not sure Oakley or Mason fit bc Green is more outspoken and wants to be in front of the camera more, it seems.

                            Every great championship team needs one crazy guy right? Isnt that the axiom?

                            '11 Dallas had Stephenson.

                              Ain't comparing their whole careers, just through age 31 and as the graphic shows, they're about equal in terms of what they've accomplished to that point. There's no hidden meanings, and no one is saying LeBron > MJ, so put your guard down.
                              And you always gotta love the LeBron crowd making all their Jordan comparisons age based... since MJ and LeBron started playing in the NBA at the same age and Jordan didn't take 1.75 years off to play baseball lol.

                                Well yeah, all time counting stats are always going to be skewed because how many more games LeBron will have played. But that doesn't make them any less impressive. The longevity guys like Kareem, Duncan, Malone, Kobe had are part of what made them so great. People aren't taking that away from them just because a stat list has their name mentioned as well as Jordan's.

                                As far as what cima posted, it really has nothing to do with Jordan playing baseball or college. More so showing how dominant both guys have been by the age of 31. Both coming into the league and becoming "the guy" by their early to mid 20's, the sustaining that into their early 30's with multiple awards and rings to show for it. Pretty incredible on both parts.
